And now that we have totally hijacked this thread: "Women, can't live with 'em... they can't live with us..." Although the wife and I have some how managed to fake it pretty well for the last 14 or so years. http://techref.massmind.org/techref/other/lovers.htm http://techref.massmind.org/techref/other/womenvsmen.htm http://techref.massmind.org/techref/menvswomen.htm My personal favorite from the above: "If a man is standing in the middle of the forest speaking and there is no woman around to hear him... is he still wrong?" And finally: An architect, an artist and an engineer were discussing whether it was better to spend time with the wife or a mistress. The architect said he enjoyed time with his wife, building a solid foundation for an enduring relationship. The artist said he enjoyed time with his mistress, because of the passion and mystery he found there.

The engineer said, "I like both." "Both?" Engineer:"Yeah. If you have a wife and a mistress, they will each assume you are spending time with the other woman, and you can go to the office and get some work done." ---------- End of Message ---------- You can view the post on-line at: http://forums.parallax.com/forums/default.aspx?f=7&p=1&m=81269#m84019 Need assistance?

It seems as though she is able to ask me to do something a few milliseconds after the thought has already entered my mind or on rare occasion for example I'll be on my way up the stairs with clean laundry as she is in the other room asking me if I will carry it up the stairs. Arghhh!! - "yes dear" - As my wife and I are sharing 5+ years of marriage with two beautiful daughters, we have been sharing our friendship together for 22+ years.

BTW) congrats!! Dan!! :o) ---------- End of Message ---------- You can view the post on-line at: http://forums.parallax.com/forums/default.aspx?f=7&p=1&m=81269#m84060 Need assistance?

He was asked what the secret to a long and happy marriage was, his reply; "knowing when to say, Yes dear". Sadly, he passed away about a week after the interview.

Dan, you might seriously consider your winning chances concerning the lottery ticket. Just punch some numbers to find out the probabiliy for a win - I guess, chances for exactly hitting an SX page boundary ar much higher though :-) .

Wife and I have been married for 5+ years. I have to admit, she's really good at trying to understand what I do for work and fun... ...but she just won't try to learn to code ASM for the SX... Anyway, just to see what happened, I told her about it. The she responded by talking about the cat ion exchange capacity of some material she was working with (she's an MS in Chem Eng)... ....needless to say we both ended that conversation right there and put a movie in the DVD player. Life is really good when your wife makes you hit the "Pause" button on your work...

I met my wife when I was on the cheer team (Stunt Team, not dance squad). I was the Chick Chucker, she was my Chucked Chick. If you don't mind finding a Woman who's a Chem Eng (About 90% of women were Chem Eng Majors), try out for the cheer team! If you can handle all of the ridicule and all of the beautiful women! Actually, it's sort of discouraging that not many women find electrical engineering interesting.
